Out Of Context

Contributed by Robert Sickler on Apr 23, 2018

Taking a verse out of context and using it to support our opinion can put us on thin ice with the Lord, especially when we stretch things too far.

Out of Context Introduction When we make a statement or a write about something it is very important to be sure we remain within the context of what we are referencing. It may be a true statement that we once saw a man catch a 150 pound catfish; however, if we make this statement, while writing ...read more

A Long Campaign

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 16, 2025

In God’s time we will see the results of what we have done, even if someone else completes the work, just as Timothy built on Paul’s foundation.

My own graduation from high school and departure to college is so long ago and far away that I can hardly remember it. On the other hand, I graduated from seminary almost 30 years later, and so it’s much closer. There’s a lot the two have in common: leaving behind the old familiar, and going off ...read more

When Doubt Is Called Proof

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 27, 2025

True prophets invite testing; a claim that denial proves authenticity is a closed loop and never the biblical measure of God’s voice.

Opening – The Self-Proving Prophet Let me start with a single, startling sentence: > “One proof I have that I am a prophet of God is if you deny that it is so.” Let it sink in. It sounds clever at first, like a riddle that wins no matter how you answer. If you agree, the claim is ...read more

INTRODUCTION — TRYING TO NAVIGATE A WORLD WITH NO MAP We live in a world that can run you ragged before breakfast.

The Glory Of The Story - 1 Peter 1:10-12 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Nov 29, 2024

Why did the prophets search their own writings? Did they not understand what they wrote? If that's the case, what were they trying to communicate when they wrote it?

The prophets searched Scripture to find out what kind of era it would be when the Messiah would suffer and then be glorified. But they were told that it was not for them to know. We get to participate in this glorious kingdom in the Church (why would a Christian prefer the world to the Church?). ...read more

Jesus Calls On Us To Repent

Contributed by Robert Irvine on May 3, 2024

From Mark 1, we see the subject of repentance was raised by both John the Baptist and Jesus Christ

Today we are looking at the Christian foundational topic of repentance, and what it means for us. First of all, if we look at the beginning of the Book of Mark we see John baptising in the River Jordan.

Building On The Rock. Abridged.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 23, 2025

To build our lives on anything less than a relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ is the very height of madness.

BUILDING ON THE ROCK. Matthew 7:21, Matthew 7:24-27. Mere profession of Jesus’ deity: “Lord, Lord” (Matthew 7:21) will not fit us for entry into “the kingdom of heaven.” The person who will “enter the kingdom of heaven,” says Jesus, is the one who “does the will of my Father which in ...read more
